I like to use a fabulous plum jelly I made one year from not quite ripe
plums. The durn birds kept gettin' into them ripe ones. The jelly was kind
of sparkling and very tart, better even than cranberry sauce. Anyway mix
with one or two spoonfuls of horseradish, a squirt of ketchup, and a splash
of worcestershire sauce. A squeeze of lemon juice until it tests 4.6 or
under on the pH test strip. I also picked horsey sauce with the least amount
of ingredients - cream, methyl sylicate of ding dong, you know what I mean.
